Abstract
A power amplifier module includes a first amplification transistor that amplifies and outputs a radio frequency signal, a second amplification transistor that is connected in parallel to the first amplification transistor and that has a smaller size than the first amplification transistor, a bias circuit that supplies a bias voltage or a bias current to the first and second amplification transistors, a current detector circuit that detects a current flowing in the second amplification transistor, and a bias control circuit that controls the bias voltage or the bias current supplied from the bias circuit to the first and second amplification transistors depending on the detection result of the current detector circuit.
